Schlossgut Diel Zero de Diel Riesling

Zero de Diel is a contemporary expression of one of Germany's most celebrated grape varieties. Created by the historic Schlossgut Diel estate, this alcohol-free Riesling brings together vibrant fruit, delicate floral notes and the freshness that defines the variety. Elegant, lively and beautifully precise, it offers the character of Riesling in a different form.

Our Alcohol Free Selection

For Pontus Frithiof Wine Club, a great drinking experience has never been about alcohol alone. It is about flavor, craftsmanship and finding the right bottle for the moment.

As the way we drink continues to evolve, alcohol-free choices deserve the same thought and attention as any other selection. Whether for an entire evening, alongside a particular course or simply because the occasion calls for something different, choosing not to drink alcohol shouldn't mean stepping outside the experience.

This collection reflects that philosophy. Three distinctive bottles, selected for what they bring to the glass and to the table, rather than for what they leave out because a great wine list should have something exceptional for everyone.

The Wine

The Diel family's connection to Burg Layen in Germany's Nahe region dates back to 1802. Over generations, the estate has established a reputation for wines of remarkable precision and elegance, particularly its Rieslings. Its admission to the prestigious VDP association in 1989 marked an important chapter in that history. Today, Zero de Diel represents a new direction for the estate, bringing its winemaking heritage to an alcohol-free expression.

Formulation

Riesling is celebrated for its ability to combine aromatic intensity with remarkable freshness and structure. ZERO DE DIEL draws on these qualities, placing the grape itself at the centre of the experience. Rather than relying on sweetness alone, the wine retains a sense of precision and mineral definition, reflecting the style for which Schlossgut Diel is known.

Aroma

Fresh and expressive, with bright citrus zest and crisp apple joined by delicate white flowers. The aromatic profile is clean and inviting, with a subtle floral character bringing elegance to the lively fruit.

Palate

Juicy and precise, with crisp apple and citrus carried by vibrant freshness. A delicate mineral structure gives the wine definition and balance, leading into a clean, refreshing finish. The overall impression is lively and elegant, with the natural character of Riesling remaining at the forefront.

Goes Well With

ZERO DE DIEL is equally enjoyable as a refreshing aperitif or alongside food. Its bright acidity and delicate fruit make it a natural partner for light appetisers, fresh seafood and grilled white fish. It also works beautifully with lightly seasoned poultry, spring vegetables and dishes featuring fresh herbs.
